Title:
IN-SCREEN PREDICTION MODE DECISION METHOD, IMAGE ENCODING METHOD, AND IMAGE ENCODING DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/072895
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a method for reducing the processing amount when deciding an in-screen prediction mode while maintaining the encoding efficiency at a certain level in an in-screen prediction encoding. A representative value of at least three regions constituting a block to be encoded is calculated. An error sum of at least two of the representative values distributed in one direction and an error sum of at least two of the representative values distributed in at least one direction different from the aforementioned direction are calculated. At least one in-screen prediction mode in the direction where the error sum is minimum among the calculated at least two errors is decided. Thus, it is possible to reduce the processing load when deciding the in-screen prediction mode.
